A decent rant by Nikita (creator of the font Fira Code) on the apalling state of the art with modern softwares. There is a bit of trivialization but overall a required call for action.

Rarely I agree to Guardian’s views but this one on US Open Ladies Final drama is spot on

But none of that excuses what Williams did in the Arthur Ashe Stadium on Saturday night – which was to manipulate sentiment to her advantage,

but Wired also have this gem of a loose statement (without any evidence)

If you’re having a tough time thinking of what could possibly be used in place of URLs, you’re not alone. Academics have considered options over the years, but the problem doesn’t have an easy answer.

Brett Victor & Alan Kay’s Dynamicland is exciting but lacked implementation details. Oman Rizwan, one of the resident researchers there, via his awesome account of making a new library there called Geokit has provided interesting insides into Dynamicland & RealTalk – the programming system behind all the coolness. Notes from Dynamicland: Geokit
